    Squatters and drug dealers hang out in the lobby
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Access to public transportation
    The owner is responsive to repairs and maintenance
    Cons:
    Drug dealers and addicts on this block. In winter they sleep in the building by the steps smoking and drinking, playing music with no regard for the residents. Often there are loud arguments. Packages are constantly going missing and it makes people uncomfortable.
    Advice to owner:
    Please hire a security guard to keep trespassers out. It is interfering with peace and quality of life of the tenants. They make noise all hours of the night, leave food, cigarettes and alcohol bottles in the common areas and by the stairs. Packages are constantly stolen.
